gman encouraged me to post a diary entry again. So here it is. It has been a while since I posted a diary entry, but not much happened (:. One of the things which happened was my "official" graduation, got a piece of paper stating that I finished school, etc. Other than that I managed to get myself enrolled at the university. Not that that is difficult, but I *really* hate filling in forms :). I really look forward to going to university, the last year at school the school-part was boring. The socializing-part was really cool though. For some weird reason I already feel at home at the faculty at the uni, so that's a cool start I think. The people are also really nice there.

So actually my uber-long summer holiday has been pretty much the same. Hacking. Not much social contacts with friends ... Which sucks. I hope to pick it up again now everybody is back from holiday and stuff. I am really going to try to make my life less boring :D.

So jorn told me that SomaFM stopped broadcasting today. Killed by the RIAA. SomaFM had cool and special webcasts like BeatBlender and GrooveSalad. Internet Radio is dying at the moment and the RIAA also managed to destroy AudioGalaxy. By listening to broadcasts such as SomaFM and by downloading music and listening to it, I learned about new and cool music. Which I would actually buy if I liked it. And I sure bought a lot of CDs after hearing some of it via the Internet. And I'm pretty sure a lot of other people also did this (in fact, there was a study saying that users of file sharing networks started buying more CDs, see this page).
